MONTEREY TRAIL HIGH SCHOOL The Design and Technology (DATA) provides a rigorous four-year program designed to give students training, information and resources in the areas of Engineering, Computer Science and Environmental Architecture. Throughout the students high school career, DATA teachers focus on three main goals: 1. to strengthen students motivation and commitment to learning by providing purpose for their learning experiences 2. to improve students connection to school through personalized learning environments and workplace experiences 3. and to prepare students to enter industry with appropriate certification and/or post-secondary education. Engineering Engineering Students will engage in various hands-on activities to explore the nature of assorted engineering fields. In addition, the student will learn about technology sectors such as manufacturing, construction, power and energy, communications and transportation. Student teams are formed to develop, design, build and present a functional electromechanical prototype. During fabrication, students will perform various manufacturing processes and learn various technologies and concepts such as manual and CNC machining, CNC plasma cutting, 3D printing, robotics, welding, electronics, pneumatics and mechanical systems. Students may be eligible to apply to Sacramento State University through the ACE Program for transferable college credit.
